The March 881 recorded the fastest speed trap of the 1988 season for an atmospheric car in qualifying for the German Grand Prix at Hockenheim. Ivan Capelli pushed the 600 bhp (447 kW; 608 PS) car to 312 km/h (194 mph) on the circuit's long straights, though this was still some 20 km/h (12 mph) slower than the 650 bhp (485 kW; 659 PS) McLarens.[citation needed]
